OK, thanks for the info. now i know better!
my knowledge of cyclocross is purely from the web and magazines... never done it meself.
and in taiwan there is basically no cross country let alone cyclo cross, so i barely ride my XC MTB here anyway. lots of almost suicidal down hill stuff, but no long XC near me at all.
